“The IBM i skills gap is real, the modernization backlog is growing, and the window to act before key developers retire is narrowing,” says Rob Swanson, Co-Founder and software engineer at CNX. “Valence tackles these challenges by changing how IBM i applications get built so developers of any age can dive right in and efficiently produce code. Tell it what data to include and how it should be displayed, and Valence writes the code, which lives in your own repository, version-controlled and yours to keep.”

Valence 6.4 dramatically extends the value of this already game-changing low-code platform. Robust AI integration makes the Valence Assistant significantly more intelligent, able to write source code for applications through conversational prompts. Valence can automatically generate documentation, including User Guides for applications built through the platform. The new Data Chat Widget allows users to have natural conversations about their data, while never sharing that data with the AI service. The Valence VS Code Extension connects developers to the Valence platform to explore data sources and AI-assisted workflows without leaving the editor.
